The Initial Designs of The Ting Barriers
Jan 29th, 2012 by azadehfa
The following are the drawings the team made to both analyze and brainstorm for the final design of the Ting Barriers, more details are in the captions and descriptions of the photos:
- Guide lines extracted from a picture from the Ming Dynasty.
- The very first design that we considered.
- The second design idea presented to the group.
- The third design that the group felt was closer to the final product.
Very cool conceptual designs. It must be challenging to grapple with the open-endedness of this part of the process. I hope you get the chance to meet with the garden’s architect. These folks are usually really good at grappling with open-ended designs (do you recall Greg Johnson’s lecture on the design process form CIVL 201?).
